Life Under the Sun

Wildflower and Mountain Biking

Upon my return from New Hampshire, Mike announced that we must go mountain biking at Corral Creek.  I hadn’t biked in a week and was antsy to do so, so I didn’t need much convincing to head out.  We brought a camera and were able to capture some of the amazing wildflowers that are in bloom.

The northern Rockies has a wildflower season that’s quite unlike any other I’ve seen.  Wildflowers, here, are often an all-or-nothing proposition.  While we don’t have the wildflower diversity of some other locations, the ones we have certainly know how to put on a pretty spectacular show.  The images below were taken on the Corral Creek Trail, on the bench above Trail Creek.
